In this Seattle Times interview, he discusses new technologies, the AT&T Wireless sale, mobile TLD's, and what we'll see in 10 years.<br /><br />"I think the things that you will see are significant changes in user interface. The idea that you have to pick up and dial a phone probably will be gone 10 years from now. The mode switching between doing a data thing or a voice thing, that will all be gone. You'll generally interact with your device via voice or via screen, but the idea that you're doing either/or will go away. It will just be integrated in."
